While that is the most common attribution, there does not appear to be any actual evidence to support the claim - it's not in any of his published writings, or reported by any of his colleagues. I've heard it attributed to both Churchill and Clemens/Twain, but again only as anecdotal, with no supporting evidence. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
